Maybe not widespread, but my grandfather's hunting club followed heightened trigger discipline back in the 60s and 70s. Most of them were WW2 vets though so maybe that's relevant.
This will give you the details but basically Malcolm X said that the shitty leader of the Nation of Islam shouldn't be the leader and then he started to get death threats so he felt he needed to protect himself. This picture, I believe, is him at his house.
